HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO FOLD THE TREADMILL FOR STORAGE
Before folding the treadmill, adjust the incline to the
lowest position. If this is not done, the treadmill may be
permanently damaged. Next, unplug the power cord.
CAUTION: You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20
kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
1. Hold the treadmill frame with your hands in the locations
shown at the right. CAUTION: To decrease the possibil-
ity of injury, bend your legs and keep your back
straight. As you raise the treadmill, make sure to lift
with your legs rather than your back. Raise the tread-
mill about halfway to the vertical position.
2. Hold the treadmill firmly with your left hand. Using your
right hand, pull the latch knob to the right and hold it.
Raise the treadmill until the pin on the latch knob is
aligned with the hole in the left foam grip. Then, release
the latch knob.
Make sure that the latch knob is fully
released so that the pin is fully inserted into the hole
in the left foam grip.
To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a
mat under the treadmill. Keep the treadmill out of
direct sunlight. Do not leave the treadmill in the stor-
age position in temperatures above 85° Fahrenheit.
HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, convert the treadmill to the stor-
age position as described above.
Make sure that the lock-
ing pin is inserted into the left handrail.
1. Hold the handrails as shown and place one foot against
the hood only in the location shown. Do not hold or
push on the book holder.
2. Tilt the treadmill back until it rolls freely on the wheels.
Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location. Never
move the treadmill without tipping it back. To reduce
the risk of injury, use extreme caution while moving
the treadmill. Do not attempt to move the treadmill
over an uneven surface.
3. Place one foot on the hood and carefully lower the tread-
mill until it is resting in the storage position.
HOW TO LOWER THE TREADMILL FOR USE
1. Refer to drawing 2 above. Hold the treadmill firmly with your left hand. Pull the latch knob to the right. Pivot the
treadmill down until the pin on the latch knob is below the foam grip. Slowly release the latch knob.
2. Refer to drawing 1 above. Hold the treadmill firmly with both hands and lower the treadmill frame to the floor.
CAUTION: To decrease the possibility of injury, bend your legs and keep your back straight.
